The pendant is cursed and will then require Isumi to seal it... While doing it Isumi confesses to Hayate that she likes him and this leads to a series of wacky events and misunderstanding by Wateru and Nagi..

For those who didn't read my spoiler, lets just say the pendant should sow the way for more Isumi goodness..

That confused me too...

Spoiler for manga semi-spoiler:

Despite the amount of emphasis (in the cartoon and comics) that was placed on the pendant, it seems like that's the only reason it was in place -- to set up that Isumi moment.

Even then, I don't think there has been a single piece of dialogue in reference to it, even during the Isumi incident, and it isn't even shown after that.

Personally i think the pendant is just that, a plot device to propel the story forward particularly in the direction of Isumi... It's all there to set up that Hayate and Isumi moment and after it's done it's duty then you never talk about it again..

There are A LOT of MAR references for ep.13. It's such an underrated show, it's just awesome.

Dorothy > all.

Oh wow, you're right. Probably more MAR references than most episodes.
Nanashi finally made his appearance. Along with the fat slam dunk coach.
I didn't recognize the other people passing hamster girl though

Since Hakuou school is Westminster palace and Big Ben, they should have made the streetcar a double decker bus

Such a funny episode. It was hillarious. Poor Hayate failed because of the people who wanted to actually help .

The universe hates Hayate. I think it's fair to say that now.

Ep 13

Didn't think this was a particularly great episode, but they can't all be brilliant. Young Klaus got serious laughs from me, but that was about it. I really had no idea what the point of Nishizawa's appearance was... nor did I get why they had to recap the entire last episode. Oh well... looks like Hinagiku is going to take center stage in the next episode, and that's always a good thing. Although, with that said, it looks more and more like this anime is going to take the Nagi path.

Like all these harem cartoons (ugh... I hate harem cartoons, but Hayate gets an exception because it's so hilarious), each girl will have their moment, if it follows anything like the comic. The writers will sway you toward each one, one at a time, with many laughs in between.

It's because they were padding out the episode. Maybe about a quarter to a third of it was anime-original content (also known as filler, although some of the best jokes this time were filler), and the rest felt sort of slowed down by some strange amount, which imo messed up the timing of some jokes. And of course the presence of flashbacks slowed things even more. So, padding. My guess is that they wanted to end the episode with that cliffhanger, for whatever reason, instead of finishing the whole application storyline in one episode..

I am looking forward for next episode too for the same reason as you . All the episodes with Hinagiku have been superb. She is probably my second favorite female character after Isumi.

The whole of episode 13 should have been Klaus backstory --- that one scene as a child was LOL brilliant. Overall a great episode, though not the best i've seen from this series.

Preview for next weeks episode looks interesting. Nagi in a cute dress, and we have Hayate & Maria sat on the outdoor bench after he receives his results. One's imagination can wonder what'll happen here.
